The Catholic church versus the Catholic premier
The Catholic church has seen the devil, and it is a form of diversity known as gay-straight alliances.
GSAs are small groups of high school kids — typically a bunch of straight girls and cool gay boys who oppose the bullying of other gay kids (who aren’t always so popular and sometimes kill themselves).
Not a big deal, you might think — the GSAs, I mean. And quite a big deal, you might say — the suicides.
Yet the church cannot countenance this social innovation. It sees GSAs as a cancer on its catechism, to be rooted out before the movement metastasizes.

And again, this is being "justified" by church leaders using cries of protecting "religious freedom" (to hate homosexuals, apparently). Disgusting.
